The Youth Essay competition, organised by the European Commission Directorate General for Single Market, Industry, Entrepreneurship and SMEs, is open and seeks creative and well thought out answers to the following question:
Do you have an opinion on how European policy can help shape the future; or on what government, academic institutions, and businesses can do to ensure that young people can acquire the skills they need for tomorrow’s work places?
